Imagine a conversation of a today’s visual artist, painting on a tablet with digital tools, with an artist in the early 00s who was literally hating on anyone not using physical medium, accusing them of job stealing, and saying “it’s not art”.

My grandfather was a traditional artist, and had a very strict definition of art. From his POV art was dying, and he’s not wrong given his definition. I tried to explain how many 1000s of people are paid to make art for games, moves & Etsy etc., but I don’t think he really thought of that as art
In other words, I agree with your sentiment! I have some mixed opinions on AI art, but arguing if it’s real art or not is not very fruitful, just like it never has been.
